NATIONAL BESTSELLER A &#8220viid and devastating&#8221(The New York Times) portrait of
an indomitable girl&#8212frm acclaimed journalist Andrea Elliott&#8220Frm its first indelible
pages to its rich and startling conclusion, Invisible Child had me, by turns, stricken, inspired,
outraged, illuminated, in tears, and hungering for reimmersion in its Dickensian
depths.&#8221#8212Ayad Akhtar, author of Homeland ElegiesONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS

winner Andrea Elliott follows eight dramatic years in the life of Dasani, a girl whose imagination is
as soaring as the skyscrapers near her Brooklyn shelter. In this sweeping narrative, Elliott weaves
the story of Dasani&#8217schildhood with the history of her ancestors, tracing their passage from
slavery to the Great Migration north. As Dasani comes of age, New York City&#8217shomeless
crisis has exploded, deepening the chasm between rich and poor. She must guide her siblings
through a world riddled by hunger, violence, racism, drug addiction, and the threat of foster care.
Out on the street, Dasani becomes a fierce fighter &#8220toprotect those who I love.&#8221When
she finally escapes city life to enroll in a boarding school, she faces an impossible question: What
if leaving poverty means abandoning your family, and yourself?A work of luminous and riveting
prose, Elliott&#8217sInvisible Child is like a novel. It is an astonishing story about the power of
resilience, the importance of family and the cost of inequality&#8212tod through the crucible of
one remarkable girl.&nbspWiner of the J. Anthony Lukas Book Prize Finalist for the Bernstein
Award and the PEN/John Kenneth Galbraith Award
